The X protein can act on the enhancer of hepatitis B virus in an in uitro system and elevate the transcriptional level of hepatitis B virus. However, because no relationship had been reported between X protein expression and hepatitis B virus replication in patients with chronic hepatitis B, we focu
MicroRNAs are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by targeting messenger RNAs (mRNAs) through translational repression or RNA degradation. Many fundamental biological processes are modulated by microRNAs, and an important role for microRNAs in carcinogenesis is emerging. Because under
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated nephritis has been reported worldwide. Immune complex deposition has been accepted as its pathogenesis, although the association between the presence of local HBV DNA and viral antigen and the development of nephritis remains controversial. To understand better the
## Abstract The hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) plays an important role in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The relationship was examined between HBV antigens and IAP (inhibitor of apoptosis) family in development of HCC. The expression levels of HBV antigens (HBsAg, HBcAg, and
